You sort of, I suspect, deterministically, get to where you understand why Socrates wanted to just walk-on-out of Athens. Because It’s just seems hopeless.

But it’s not. It’s just too high a standard to hold others too.

Just because equality is not possible, that doesn’t mean a chance for dramatic improvement isn’t readily available, or even probable.

So, you just plant a bunch of seeds, because the people in your moment, may not be the one’s who harvest them.

And in all reality, it’s just that, while you think the relative distance is very great, you’re only a teensy-tiny bit ahead of the curve in absolute terms.

And someday that marginal difference will be assumed to be as natural, obvious and taken for granted as gravity; and the prior state of affairs as inconceivable a distance as your perception of the difference between the past norms and your present understanding.
